ELEVEN TEN STUDIO ARTIST RUN SPACE IN BASEL

Chiara Bertin (b. Milan, Italy) is a visual artist and researcher whose practice intertwines history, memory, and feminist methodologies. She explores forgotten narratives of women: botanists, scientists, visionaries, and laborers through reenactment, archival research, and experimental techniques. Bertin’s work creates relational and mnemonic spaces that connect past and present, emphasizing resonance (“risonanza”) as a method of mutual recognition, shared knowledge, and collective memory. She holds a Master’s degree in Arts in Public Spheres from Haute école d’art du Valais (CH) and a Master’s degree in Graphic Design from Libera Accademia di Belle Arti, Florence. She is currently based in Fribourg, Switzerland, where she works as a Visual Arts Lecturer at HEIA-FR and serves as Artistic Coordinator for the Conférence des villes en matière culturelle (CVC). Her work has been recognized with awards including the Atelier artistique à Gênes attribuée par Fribourg (2022) and the Prix d’excellence artistique of the Valais School of Art (2018), and she regularly leads workshops in cyanotype, anthotype, and other experimental photographic techniques.
